TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a novel indazole derivative or a salt thereof useful as a pharmaceutical. The indazole derivative according to the present invention has a Rho kinase inhibiting action and is useful as a treating agent for diseases in which Rho kinase is involved such as eye, diseases including glaucoma.

BACKGROUND ART

Rho, a low-molecule GTP-binding protein, is activated by signals from various cell membrane receptors. The activated Rho functions, via Rho kinase signal transduction and actomyosin signal transduction, as a molecular switch for various cellular phenomena such as contraction of smooth muscles, morphological changes in cells, cell movement, cell division, intercellular adhesion, platelet aggregation, leukocyte aggregation, infiltration and increase of cancer cells.
It has been also known that such cellular phenomena deeply participate in diseases such as hypertension, angina pectoris, asthma, peripheral circulatory disorder, premature delivery, arteriosclerosis, cancer, inflammatory diseases, autoimmune diseases, AIDS, fertilization and implantation of a fertilized egg, osteoporosis, cerebral function disturbance, gastrointestinal dysfunction by bacteria, glaucoma and retinopathy.
Accordingly, it is believed that, when Rho is inhibited, prevention and/or treatment of the aforementioned diseases in which Rho is participated are/is possible.
On the other hand, it has been also known that, when Rho kinase, which exists in the downstream of signal transduction mediated by Rho, is inhibited, various cellular phenomena caused by Rho are able to be suppressed.
Thus, compounds which inhibit the Rho kinase are believed to be effective preventive and/or treating agents for the aforementioned diseases in which Rho is participated such as hypertension, angina pectoris, asthma, peripheral circulatory disorder, premature delivery, arteriosclerosis, cancer, inflammatory diseases, autoimmune diseases, AIDS, fertilization and implantation of fertilized egg, osteoporosis, cerebral function disturbance, gastrointestinal dysfunction by bacteria, glaucoma and retinopathy (WO 98/06433).
A Rho kinase inhibitor is usually defined as an inhibitor for serine/threonine kinase activated as a result of activation of Rho. The Rho kinase inhibitor includes compounds which inhibit protein having serine/threonine kinase activity such as ROKα (ROCK-II), ROKβ (ROCK-I, p160ROCK) and others.
Examples of the known Rho kinase inhibitor are amide derivatives disclosed in WO 98/06433; isoquinoline sulfonyl derivatives disclosed in WO 97/23222, Nature 389, 990-994 (1997) and WO 99/64011; heterocyclic amino derivatives disclosed in WO 01/56988; indazole derivatives disclosed in WO 02/100833; and quinazoline derivatives disclosed in WO 02/076976 and WO 02/076977.
It has been also disclosed in WO 00/09162 and WO 00/57914 that a Rho kinase inhibitor is useful as a treating agent for glaucoma.
However, in any of the aforementioned documents, there is no specific disclosure for the indazole derivative according to the present invention.

After the reaction was finished, the reaction solution was poured into 100 ml of water and the mixture was extracted with 300 ml of ethyl acetate. The organic layer was successively washed with water and a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting residue was subjected to a silica gel column chromatography (eluting solvent: n-hexane:ethyl acetate=4:1 (v/v)) and the fraction containing the aimed product was concentrated in vacuo to give 155 mg of the title compound as yellow powder (yield: 27%).

Example 6

Synthesis of 4-amino-1-tert-butoxycarbonyl-5-[4-(1-tert-butoxycarbonylamino-1-methylethyl)phenyl]-1H-indazole (compound 6-1)

1,4-Dioxane (10 ml) and 20 ml of ethanol were added to 336 mg (0.68 mmol) of 1-tert-butoxycarbonyl-5-[4-(1-tert-butoxycarbonylamino-1-methylethyl)phenyl]-4-nitro-1H-indazole (compound 1-7), then a suspension of 672 mg of 5% palladium-carbon (wet) in 10 ml of ethanol was added thereto and the mixture was stirred in a hydrogen atmosphere at room temperature for 1 hour.
After the reaction was finished, the reaction solution was filtered through Celite and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo. The resulting residue was subjected to a silica gel column chromatography (eluting solvent: n-hexane:ethyl acetate=2:1 (v/v)) and the fraction containing the aimed product was concentrated in vacuo to give 225 mg of the title compound as white powder (yield: 81%).

Chem., 274, 32418, 1999 and also with the methods mentioned in the instruction manual for use attached to commercially available activated ROCK II [Upstate Biotechnology, Catalog No. 14-338, (5 unite/50 μl)]. With regard to the test compounds, the compounds 5-1 to 5-73 (except the compounds 5-2, 5-9, 5-18, 5-37 and 5-38) were used.
(Preparation of the Reagents)
1) Preparation of Buffer
A buffer was prepared so as to make tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (Tris) (pH 7.5), 50 mM, ethyleneglycol bis(β-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid (EGTA), 2 mM, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), 1 mM, magnesium chloride (MgCl₂) 5 mM, β-glycerol phosphate, 5 mM, and dithiothreitol (DTT), 2 mM, by mixing them.
2) Preparation of 300 μM ATP [γ-³²P]ATP Solution
A mixed liquid of a 10 mM ATP solution with a commercially available [γ-³²P]ATP solution [NEN, Code No. NEG-002A] was diluted with the buffer to prepare a 300 μM ATP [γ-³²P]ATP solution.
3) Preparation of an activated ROCK II solution.
A Commercially Available Activated ROCK II [Upstate Biotechnology, Catalog No. 14-338, (5 Units/50 μl)] was diluted to a concentration of 1/100 with the buffer to prepare an activated ROCK II solution.
4) Preparation of a 1 mM Substrate Solution
A S6 Kinase Substrate Peptide [Upstate Biotechnology, Catalog No. 12-124,] (2 mg) was dissolved in distilled water to prepare a 1 mM substrate solution.
5) Preparation of a Test Compound Solution
A test compound was dissolved in 10% aqueous dimethyl sulfoxide solution.
(Method for Evaluation)
1) The test compound solution is placed in a microtube.
2) The 300 μM ATP [γ-³²P]ATP solution is added to the microtube followed by cooling to 4° C.
3) After that, a permanently activated ROCK II solution, 1 mM substrate solution and buffer are added to each microtube in that order, and the whole is mixed and cooled again at 4° C.
4) The microtube is placed in an incubator (30° C.) and the mixture is subjected to reaction for 15 minutes.
5) After cooling to 4° C., a 250 mM phosphoric acid solution (5 μl) is added to each microtube to stop the reaction.
6) The reaction solution (30 μl) is taken out from each microtube and spotted on a filter paper (Whatman P81) so that the reaction product (phosphorylated substrate) is adsorbed to the filter paper.
7) The filter paper is transferred to a beaker in which a 75 mM phosphoric acid solution is placed and shaken for 5 minutes so that unreacted [γ-³²P]AfP is washed out. The washing operation as such is carried out four times.
8) After that, the filter paper is dipped in ethanol to dehydrate and energy amount (radioactivity) of the reaction product adsorbed to the filter paper is measured with a liquid scintillation counter.
(Calculation of IC₅₀)
The IC₅₀value was calculated by an XL-fit (IDBS).
(Calculation of Ki Value)
The Ki value is calculated by the following formula. S is an ATP concentration contained in the reaction solution while Km is a Michaelis-Menten constant.
Ki=IC ₅₀/(1+S/Km)

The test compounds 1, 2, 3 and 4 were dissolved in a 2.6% glycerol solution, respectively, and sodium hydroxide was added thereto to adjust the pH (pH 3.5 to 7.0) to prepare a test compound solution of a 1% concentration (of the test compound 1, 2), a 0.3% concentration (of the test compound 3) and a 0.1% concentration (of the test compound 4).
(Test Methods for Ocular Hypotension)
1) One drop of a 0.4% eyedrop of oxybuprocaine hydrochloride was instilled into each of both eyes of a cynomolgus monkey (Macaca fascicularis) to induce local anesthesia.
2) Intraocular pressure was measured immediately before administration of a test compound solution and defined as the initial intraocular pressure.
3) A test compound solution was instilled into one of the eyes of the experimental animal (while another eye was not treated).
4) After 2, 4 and 6 hours after instillation of the test compound solution, one drop of a 0.4% eyedrop of oxybuprocaine hydrochloride was instilled into each of both eyes to induce local anesthesia and then intraocular pressure was measured. The measuring intraocular pressure for each time was carried out three times and a mean value thereof was calculated.
As a control, only a vehicle (2.6% glycerol solution) instead of a test compound solution was topically administered and the same test procedure as in the methods of the above 1) to 4) was conducted.
